OK, thanks Louis.

I did a search for Panama Rag on spotify. It comes up with 35 tracks
called Panama Rag by artists including Bunk Johnson, Sidney Bechet,
Louis, Kid Ory and many more. All of them are the Tyers "Panama".
The Sidney Bechet one even has somebody announcing the tune as
Panama Rag. With so many people "getting it wrong" it's not surprising
there is so much confusion.
